Procedure

After you have set the Parameters for Central Logging, you must start the SAP system processes that send messages from local logs to the central log. Start a collect process and a send process in the central system. You must start a send process on every instance.

Note Note

This section is not valid for SAP systems that run on Microsoft Windows NT hosts. Central logging is not available on these platforms as as a result the processes described below are not required.

End of the note.
Starting a Collect Process in the Central Instance

You must only start a collect process in the instance where the central log is to be executed. Add the following commands to the start profile to start the collect process:

Syntax Syntax

  1. #------------------------------------------------------------

# rslgcoll ausführen 

#------------------------------------------------------------

_CO =co.sap<SID>_DVEBMGS00

# Linknamen für rslgcoll erstellen

Execute_05 =local ln -s -f $(DIR_EXECUTABLE)/rslgcoll 

$(_CO)

# Programm unter Angabe des Instanzprofils des Servers starten

Start_Program_05 =local $(_CO) -F 

pf=$(DIR_PROFILE)/<SID>_DVEBMGS00
End of the code.
Starting Send Processes

Start a send process on every instance of your system, including the central system. The send process transfers the messages of the individual instances to the central log. To start a send process, add the following rows to the start profile(s) of the individual instances:

Syntax Syntax

  1. #------------------------------------------------------------

# rslgsend ausführen

#------------------------------------------------------------

_SE =se.sap<SID>_DVEBMGS00

# Linknamen für rslgsend erstellen

Execute_06 =local ln -s -f $(DIR_EXECUTABLE)/rslgsend 

$(_SE)

# Programm unter Angabe des Instanzprofils des Servers starten

Start_Program_06 =local $(_SE) -F 

pf=$(DIR_PROFILE)/<SID>_DVEBMGS00
End of the code.

Note Note

Proceed as follows to display the complete syntax and options of RSLGCOLL and RSLGSEND:

  1. Switch to the SAP Executables Directory on a host system where an SAP application server is installed. A typical example for UNIX is: /usr/sap/<SYSTEMNAME>/SYS/exe/run.

  2. Enter the program name (rslgsend, rslgcoll) and then help or ?:

    rslgsend help

    The syntax of the program is then displayed.

End of the note.
